cwo4, I just watched a video on 'Dumbest Criminals' or something like that where a LEO took a car off the road for good reason and the perp came out blazing.... The LEO fired at least 8 rounds, another LEO came upon the scene immediately and was firing and the BG was hit 4 or 5 times before he fell, then he continued firing while down.

I think the officers involved wished they had those guns we see in the movies that have never-ending bullet supplies. There was no time to reload, the fight was at 10 feet to 20 feet as the officers backed away, no cover, just keep shooting until the threat stops.

So when I am told I'll never need more than 5 good shots, I can just watch this video with two highly trained and prepared LEOs firing everything their high capacity sidearms had hoping that one shot would connect well enough to incapacitate the BG.
